Akros, the God of Thieves

The god of thieves in the Korinthian Pantheon. Born as mortal, he is believed to be the only god that became a deity through other means besides creation. He stole the Essence of the Moon from Foli, splitting the god in two. He absorbed the Essence, and gained the powers of a god.

Worshipers
The church of Akros states that wealth rightfully belongs to those who could acquire it. Honesty is for fools but apparent honesty is a very valuable thing, and subtlety is everything.

The Clergy of Akors are called Akrosians, with elite specialty priests referred to as Marks. Akrosians address each other as "Brother/Sister Shadow", no matter their rank. Clergy that complete an especially dangerous heist or complex act of manipulation are often admitted to the Circle of the Gray.

It is rumored that the Cult of Akros maintains a large network of informants throughout the cities of the world. It is also rumored that this network provides employment for all sorts of thieves, beggars and thugs.

Akros' faithful are led to believe that the god saw everything that happens in the dark and to trust it, as one would be made an easy target by walking into plain light. The abilities to deceive, as truth is a foolish virtue and manipulation is better than brute force, and to be dexterous are also appreciated. Whilst the faith advocates for accumulating riches, it also said to only steal what is necessary. They also believe that owning something simply required being in possession of it.
